KRAS G12D
Overview
KRAS G12D is present in 4.20% of AACR GENIE cases, with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, colorectal adenocarcinoma, and rectal adenocarcinoma having the greatest prevalence [4].
Biomarker-Directed Therapies
KRAS G12D is a predictive biomarker for use of afatinib, dacomitinib, erlotinib, gefitinib, osimertinib, cetuximab, and panitumumab in patients.
Of the therapies with KRAS G12D as a predictive biomarker, 2 are FDA-approved and 7 have NCCN guidelines in at least one clinical setting.
